About a month after the arrival of the 3 ladies, we purchased a Romney/bluefaced Leicester ram from a farm in South Hero, VT. Knowing next to nothing about caring for sheep, we were unsure whether we should breed the ewes their first year with us however we learned that it’s better to start breeding when ewes are younger so their bodies get used to it. All three of ours are lambs (under 1 year) so we decided to just dive in and learn as we go… Nemo arrived in November so we’re expecting lambs sometime in April.
